Remarkable Holocaust Nonsense #8: German Soldiers Bayoneting Breasts
Remarkable Holocaust Nonsense #8: German Soldiers Bayoneting Breasts In yet another instance of absurd claims made about the Germans in World War II. I quote an assertion of Soviet origin about soldiers of the Third Reich bayoneting a woman's breasts. This is reproduced from the wildly popular history of 'Nazi atrocities' named 'The Scourge of the Swastika' authored by Edward Russell (aka Lord Russell of Liverpool) who was a key figure in the Nuremberg and Tokyo War Crime Trials. I quote: 'In another village German troops tied the wrists of the twenty-five-year-old pregnant wife of a Russian soldier and raped her. They then cut her throat and bayoneted her.' (1) This is obviously a variant of despicable claims made by Allied anti-German black propaganda in the First World War. When French and British propagandists falsely accused the 'evil Hun' of raping and bayoneting Belgian women. However even if we ignore this we note that as usual Russell produces no actual evidence of this claim, which renders it an anecdote and not a fact. Without that necessary detail the claim just doesn't fly and while the rape itself is quite plausible. Claiming soldiers randomly bayoneted both her breasts is just... well... sadistic and obviously propagandistic and renders the whole claim dubious in the extreme. Therefore the likelihood is that this is just another recycled piece of anti-German atrocity propaganda from the First World War and nothing more.
